Duffy show

After lunch time all the senior classes went to a Duffy show. It was about a boy named Duffy and a girl named Rosy, they were trying to encourage a man called uncle Bingo to read because he thought that books were really boring. Everyone enjoyed the show and we all had a good laugh.

Don't leave me here in New Zealand !!! Famous shot !!!

Picture time!!

The king of Duffy!!
